I'm an adult literacy and numeracy teacher and these are the best things
I've ever found. They have photocopiable worksheets and a good clear
explanation of how to use each activity. They follow a very logical
developmental process from complete beginner stage onwards. My ESL students
always enjoy doing these activities, and they generate a lot of good
focused interaction.
If you ring or fax ARIS they can send you a brochure about them.
